x86/mm: Put the gfn on all paths after get_gfn_query()

c/s 7867181b2 "x86/PoD: correctly handle non-order-0 decrease-reservation
requests" introduced an early exit in guest_remove_page() for unexpected p2m
types. However, get_gfn_query() internally takes the p2m lock, and must be
matched with a put_gfn() call later.

Fix the erroneous comment beside the declaration of get_gfn_query().

This is XSA-277.
